Forgiveness is Freedom by Steven Barendregt

Peace of mind and inner peace is more possible when you resolve conflict and difficult situations. And boy, have I had my fair share of difficult situations.

My hope for you, dear reader, is that you’ll not feel pity or sorry for me as you read this book, but rather, understand that the hand we are dealt isn’t always fair. But the way we handle that hand is entirely up to us. It is a choice, and it’s a choice I made at an early age.

A choice to rise instead of being defined by the things that happened to me.

This book walks you through my entire life, sharing everything (good, bad, and ugly) that shaped me into the man I am today.

Forgiveness IS Freedom.

Their Forgotten Love by Rose Pearson

Lady Emma has been seemingly forgotten by the Earl of Thornbridge, despite their previous closeness. Confused and uncertain, she attempts to speak with him but Lord Thornbridge continually pushes her away. Rather than remain brokenhearted, Emma is determined to find out what has taken place and restore their close connection, quite certain that he cares for her still.

Henry has lost a significant amount of money but the pain of knowing that he cannot offer Lady Emma a comfortable future demands he forces himself to turn from her. Believing that he has ended their connection, he finds himself near to her at every turn. When he discovers her ensconced in his study without a chaperone, Henry has a choice to make: tell her everything and hope she does not turn from him, or keep his secret and push her away?

Author Bio:

Prolific, 5-star-multi-award-winning Canadian indie author, Rusty Blackwood, was born October 5th in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada, and grew up on her paternal grandfather’s farm in Elgin county, located in the south-western portion of the province, where she developed a growing love for literature and the written word while still in elementary school. Though unprofessionally trained in the field, Rusty has always possessed a talent for expressing her imagination in ways that are uniquely her own, and she has demonstrated this ability many times since becoming a self-published author in 2009.

She attributes her passion for expressive writing to her late father, James Beecroft, and to her late elementary school teacher, Gladys Carroll, who encouraged her to enter her original compositions into county fairs, school contests, and whatever venue allowed participants into the vast field of writing. She has carried that love ever since, putting it to use many times since becoming a serious writer in 2001. According to Rusty, the flair for fantasy is anything the mind wishes it to be, and she is a master at this. Within the avenues of her expressive mind is found an endless array of romance, drama, passion, textures and colours to sweep the reader to exotic, faraway places where anything is possible.

Rusty is often asked how much of herself is found in her heroines, and she has been quoted to say “a fair amount”, adding that most writers inspiration comes from many different aspects of their life experiences, using them to their best advantage, and with thirteen published titles to her name thus far, ranging from poetry, children short-stories, adult comedy, and romantic fiction drama, there is no denying Miss Blackwood loves what she does. Please note: her first four titles, Feelings: A Rhythmic Journey is Thought, Young Minds, Passion in Paris: Connections to the Past, and Passion in Paris: Directions of the Heart, are no longer available.

From the time of her youth, Rusty has loved the Arts in their many interesting forms. She holds two Interior Decorating and Design diplomas, and spent countless years on numerous south-western Ontario stages performing with her family’s country music band, ‘The Midnight Ramblers’, followed by the country – rock – blues band, “MIRAGE”, as an accomplished vocalist, bassist, and rhythm guitarist. She now resides in the cultural city of St. Catharines, Ontario, and when not at her keyboard, enjoys art, music, nature, gardening, and spending quality time with family, and friends.

About Freak Bloodline

At its heart, Freak Bloodline is a sexy interstellar romance set in a hypnotic alien world. Three misfits—a psychic woman, an alien-human hybrid, and a cyborg—navigate a love triangle and the possibility of an interplanetary war.

Jaynie Parker, an artist and young entrepreneur by day, secretly struggles to control her psychic ability. When her mind-blowing visions warn her about a dangerous hybrid, she begins to question her sanity. Follow her unforgettable journey as alien relationships transform her life, and she finds her true calling on a mystical rainforest planet.

On the faraway planet of Limaxia, Ethan lives alone with only his robots for company. A brilliant scientist, but lonely and isolated, he yearns for connection. Fueled by desire for Jaynie, he abducts her to his world—hoping, waiting for her to love him. But alien romance is the last thing on her agenda. While Jaynie devises crafty escape plans to defy him, she can’t deny their unexpected bond or their slow burn chemistry.

Just as Jaynie and Ethan become closer, Harry, a shadow figure from Ethan’s dark past, enters their world. Harry, a cyborg with a pillar of blades in place of a head, is about to deliver shocking news that will change the course of their lives. Jaynie forges a connection with Harry and empathizes with his suffering—he’s a compassionate soul trapped in the body of a killing machine. In her company, Harry regains hope that love is still possible for him.

Ethan’s tendency to go off half-cocked puts all three of them in harm’s way as they face the fierce residents of a hostile planet.

It’s up to Jaynie to save the day, but will she sacrifice love in exchange for interplanetary peace?

About The Self-Licking Ice Cream Cone

Did you know humans are bad at making decisions?

Not bad like murdering your neighbor bad, just plain old poor decisions. Decisions made too late, decisions made without enough information, decisions made after gathering too much information, decisions made in a vacuum, decisions made to protect what you already have. But what do you do when the old processes that were the foundation of your business no longer serve the purpose or are no longer benefitting the whole?

This problem has a name: The Self-Licking Ice Cream Cone!

The Self-Licking Ice Cream Cone equips business owners, business leaders, and the inquisitive minds in between with the tools to make their cultures, companies, and lives more successful. The tools within take little knowledge or experience to understand, but can have a huge impact on you, your team, and your organization.

In this book, you will learn:
– The three types of cones you will see in business.
– How each cone is formed and the signs of them.
– The negative effects of each cone on your business growth.
– Decision-Maker’s Lunchbox (Packing, Partitioning, Perfecting) – each P has two tools to help make better decisions and avoid SLICCs.

This uncomfortably familiar and often humorous book will help you finally fall asleep at night instead of racking your brain for a solution to your perpetual woes. Don’t you dare hit that “Back” button! Don’t doom your team to an agonizing existence of self-indulgence!
